yes, noticed that my moderately aggressive port had moved up from its low too at a "nice pace"....
but still negative from its high 2 months ago

Now is definitely better than 2 mths ago
But then just not sure if enter now will be better when compared with next month
Thus if think of long term, invest with money not gonna touch for few years, select the portfolio level that is true to one's risk appetite...... Now would be better than 2 mtns ago...

some reading material during this MCO.....

good if that is what you wanted .....

i only go for MYR funds......thus cannot tell about that 2 othere questions....

From 15% to 10% allocation..... Just 5% less.... If exposure to M'sia had been the one limiting the MP performance for the past 2 yrs, then a reduction of 5% allocation to M'sia, will be the turning point of its fortune finally?

yes

not sure about others, but for me,
I would chose Cimb Greater China over AmChina A share in my core portfolio component funds bcos,
it has less initial and subsequence investment amount
it has more diversified countries of coverage
it has about 25% less 3-Yr Annualised Volatility (%)

I would only add in AmChina A share as my commando/striker/supplementary fund for some added kick when and as needed.

if heart can take it....with the money for > 1 yr no gonna touch...try put 20% of this Nomura I income fund money into China fund
thus instead of 100% into Nomura,...place 80% into it and 20% into China???

TA is also good......
instead of 100% in Nomura is my take for now

greater volatility comes with greater rewards.....
No-lah,...i based on its past performance over Ambond, Cimb Bond....
and also, in a mkt rebound, Eq fund would jump faster than Nomura....
so instead of "he" wanted to go ALL in Nomura....i suggested can just try swift 20% to TA to try catch the rebound...
if kena bear trap....i think it is also not much impact as it is just 20% of this Nomura

if they can do that, what will make them not able to do the same on its economic data to suit the situations?

about 2 weeks ago, I got this news....
I think you can slowly buy in,......not sai lang to heavy allocation...
my risk preference is max 10% on India...not sure about yours....

China suffers historic economic slump with hard recovery ahead

I shifted out of India in July 2019, after having recovered all my 2018 losses + some % of 2019 gains.
from 0% in FI to 50% in Nomura since July 2019

I enquired about the RHB Shariah China....
was told that due to its Shariah....it did not have finance sector in there...thus wasn't impacted by covid19..
was told that, in the event of mkt bound,...funds with financial sector would bounce faster.
